Chapter 291 I Hope You Don't Regret
Compared with the slender ordinary praying mantis, the one from the Animus Life Foundation is extremely strong, and what supports this body is not the slender legs, but the muscular elastic legs.The whole body is wrapped in a white chitin shell, and there are fine features all over the body.The forelimbs with sickle feet seemed to be extremely huge due to some kind of genetic modification, and the triangular head trembled and twisted, looking at the crowd below in the cage.
At the moment when the creature was exposed to the spotlight, there was a small amount of hustle and bustle in the venue at the right time. A supplier representative raised the glasses on his face and raised a little interest.
And as the rear curtain was lifted, more creatures were exposed to the light:
A large potted plant with lush branches and leaves, on which lies a cicada irradiated by a sound wave suppressor.
A lizard as long as an adult's arm is moving its eyes in different directions.
And a large ant nest built with high-tech equipment, a small number of thumb-sized ants are coming in and out at the entrance, with huge pincers growing.
"I remember that it was several years ago that I walked up to this booth with such a high ranking... But the time has changed, and I am very glad to be able to bring our latest scientific research results - 'Saipan' to everyone here. "
"Saipan" is the name of the praying mantis, named after the project director.
Without a lengthy prologue, the people from the Life Foundation introduced the cages on the stage one by one in concise language——
Southern Curtain Locusts.
Rayleigh Jungle Chameleon.
The breeding nest of the large-toothed ant.
And Bangka barren forest mantis - "Saipan".
"We summed up the scientific research failures after conducting research on mammals, marine organisms, birds and other species of organisms in the past, and finally selected insects with the ability to metamorphose. 'Saipan' is our masterpiece. Praying Mantis The incomplete metamorphosis of all the projects so far is the most compatible with our genetic modification and biological fusion experiments, and we have also adjusted the multi-directional experimental process for this..."
According to the representative, the praying mantis named "Saipan" was cultivated by fusion of most of the biologically extracted gene fragments and live transplantation on the booth, and the exhibition soon transitioned to the stage of scientific research data display.Turing looked at the praying mantis tightly wrapped by the gray-white exoskeleton, and the sensory eyepiece scanned every possible genetic modification position on its body.
The muscles of ants, the jumping limb structure of locusts, if chameleons are also included... In other words, this praying mantis also has the ability of optical latency?
Turing didn't have a chameleon capable of transforming demon weapons, but this was his idea. Now it seems that the Animus Life Foundation has already started this step.
If the chameleon is injected with decarburized stock solution, what kind of demonic organ will it extend?Optical camouflage?
At the same time, Turing also saw the details in the Foundation's presentation.
There are few explanations about the internal needs of the foundation, the dispersion of projects is very weak, and the scientific research data is too straightforward and unreserved... These symptoms all mean that the Animus Life Foundation is desperate.Among them, the most important point is also the biggest flaw in the creatures of the Animus Life Foundation known to Turing-span.
The Animus Life Foundation has said nothing about longevity in Saipan.
Now, backstage.
"Mr. Pauly."
"How's it going?"
"The suppliers have expressed enough interest, but there seems to be no sign of wanting to contact us." The man who was questioned by his boss shook his head.
"It doesn't matter, as long as we show enough potential, Qiertu Building will arrange for us, but we must show all the abilities of 'Saipan', and there is no need for any reservations on the actual level!"
"I understand, but..." the researcher who monitored the "Saipan" data in real time hesitated for a while, "The actual situation of Saipan is actually not good, and the problem of longevity has still not been resolved...I think avoiding the serious and the minor will not solve the problem."
"It doesn't matter, we don't need it to have a long lifespan. We only need to survive this exhibition, and we can prove our value. As for the data, it doesn't matter what you say, Qiantu Building... will help us." Poly Gritting his teeth, the researcher sighed helplessly.
The current Animus Life Foundation can only pin its hopes on stronger capital.
The stage continues:
"...But to complete this step, we need to integrate the original scientific research foundation. At the same time, we also need to make Saipan sufficiently 'strong'. Therefore, we use the genetic adjustment technology to allow Saipan to grow out in the second stage of development. The 'Dorsal Vascular Array'..."
"On this basis, we let it have the muscle structure of ants and locusts, as well as the jaw structure of the large-toothed ant, which has the fastest mouthpart closing speed, to increase its ability as a predator. Even what we thought With the proud chameleon skin and the genetically adjusted exoskeleton, Saipan has more powerful tactical capabilities on the basis of protection..."
Under the explanation of the representative, "Saipan" walked out of the open technology cage, and showed various abilities in the data explanation one by one——
Tremoring sickle feet with strong cutting ability, strong jumping ability, powerful mouthparts that can crush composite metal, and the stealth function of delayed invisibility, everything makes this creature look perfect.
"Kahn."
Turing suddenly moved his head to Kahn's ear.
"..."
After some whispering, Lumao nodded, showing a faint smile:
"so bad."
Then, the green fur lightly pressed the button on the side of the armrest.
That is a question that can be seen by everyone on the booth and even in the entire venue.
"Wilson Company..."
The representative who was speaking on the stage at the climax had to stop.
Question button, a privilege of having a seat under the central stand.However, because of the unspoken rules of picking up the quality, it is usually pressed after the opponent has completed the technical demonstration.Tapping the question button at this time is generally only done by hostile companies targeting each other.
And the Wilson company suddenly tapped the question button on the Animus Life Foundation. This rare scene made many people show interest.
In other words, watch a good show.
"We are very interested in the technology of the Animus Life Foundation, but as far as I know, your company's past projects have not been able to solve the problem of the lifespan of these little monsters. Just like the one you exhibited last time Biological. I wonder how this 'Saipan' deals with this issue?"
As soon as this remark came out, there was a burst of unrepressed titters from all the teams, and the expressions of the members of the Animus Life Foundation on the booth were darkened, and their faces were a little ugly.
Because a creature exhibited last time was too obese, it was ridiculed as a "new phenomenon".
The representative exhaled lightly, and looked straight down at the green hair that was so eye-catching in his eyes:
"It is true that it is difficult for genetically modified organisms to solve the problem of longevity, but the lifespan of 'Saipan' has reached three years, which is already a perfect and successful experimental body for the ever-changing science and technology!"
"Do you have data to prove this?"
At this time, the voice from the Qiertu Building intervened between the two, and the representative turned his attention to the team arranged by the Qiertu Building below, and heaved a sigh of relief.
According to Mr. Pauly, Qiantu Building should have brought up the topic specially to help them, so it is only necessary to confuse the matter, that is to say, dump it to Qiantu Building...
Thinking of this, he said:
"Mr. Tossa March visited our stand earlier and he can vouch for 'Saipan'."
Paulie, who saw this scene in the background, also breathed a sigh of relief, and put down his finger on the communicator by his ear.
Fortunately, the representative standing at the front desk was smart enough, so he didn't need to remind him.
However, what happened immediately left him completely stunned.
"Sorry, Mr. March did not give us any technical guarantee for the Animus Life Foundation." The people in the Qiertu Building shook their heads, "However, since it is the project guaranteed by Mr. March, it must be real The data is also enough to help you answer Wilson’s inquiries. I wonder if the gentlemen of Niante also think so?”
"That's reasonable." The representative of Niant Nuggets Factory, who seldom spoke, nodded, "The inquiry of Wilson's company is also our idea, and it is also the idea of all the company representatives here."
"That's right, we'd also like to see actual data on longevity," said another supplier representative.
Gradually, more people raised questions.
Backstage, Mr. Pauli's expression gradually sank.
Compared to before, "Saipan" performed perfectly, but it was because of the help of Qiantu Building that he was confident, but why...
"Mr. March, this is Paulie."
After a long conversation, Tossa March's relaxed tone came from the opposite side:
"It's Mr. Pauly. Your exhibition doesn't seem to be going well. Why do you still have time to call me?"
"Mr. March, you said you would help us." Paulie's voice was gloomy.
"I've already helped you. Do you know how many people want to get in in the top [-] rows?"
"You said that as long as we show enough items to convince suppliers..."
"That's true, but the problem is that you don't seem to be able to complete the persuasion operation."
"This is different from what you said at the beginning! You said you would help us!"
"When did I say that?"
Paulie opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at the ground.
"When did I say such a thing? Mr. Pauly, you must know that our building treats everyone equally. As the person in charge of this exhibition, I am responsible enough."
Paulie slowly closed his mouth, and hung up the communication while his thoughts were in confusion.
If he still doesn't know that he was cheated, then he really has been sitting in this position for so many years for nothing.
In the conversation with Tossa March, the other party hinted many times that he would help him tide over the difficulties, but... that might just be the illusion that the other party deliberately revealed to him.
And the other party's real purpose is probably to replace Wilson's ranking with the Animus Life Foundation, and...
At the front desk, the representative who was still explaining passionately about the money for a few minutes panicked.
There are more and more questions about "Saipan" below, and it's not limited to the question of lifespan. There are also many questions about the tactical duration of Saipan's hidden function. He doesn't know how to deal with it now.
"Mr. Paulie? Mr. Paulie?"
No one responded to the communication connecting to the background.
Looking at the scene above, Turing raised his eyes.
So, it would be nice to promise myself at the beginning, why bother to make it like this.Negotiating business with Qiongtu Building, this can no longer be said to be seeking skin from a tiger, but giving it for nothing.
"If the Life Foundation cannot provide actual data, then I have every reason to believe that you are deliberately concealing and defrauding investment. You should know the consequences of doing so."
Under Kahn's ruthless supplementary attack, the representative on the stage tremblingly held the portable microphone by his mouth:
"In response to your inquiries...the Foundation states that...this is internal confidential information and is not included in the display..."
Amidst all the attention, "Saipan" returned to the cage, and the Animus Life Foundation people stepped down.
In the corner, a burly man looked at the genetically modified creature above that was covered with a black cloth again, turned around expressionlessly, and entered a side room.
"It's quite similar to our thinking, it's really a pity..."
……
……
"Backstage."
"Tossa March..."
"Don't look at me like that. I'm also sorry for the unsuccessful display of the Animus Life Foundation." Facing Paulie's glaring glare, Tossa March shrugged and glanced around The standing bodyguard of the Tek Corruptor signaled the other party not to be impulsive.
"It's over, what else do you want?!"
"Don't worry, I know that you are still in a hurry to find new investors. Mr. Pauly should not let go of a chance...In that case, I have a good proposal here."
"I won't be fooled again." Without thinking, Paulie crossed Tossa March with his team and instruments and was about to leave.
"Really? I just completed a failed investment scam on the booth, who else do you think will fall in love with the Animus Life Foundation?" Tossa March's voice came from the side and rear, Paulie ruthlessly He gritted his teeth hard and stopped on his feet.
"I have another good proposal here..." Tossa March showed a slight smile, "Qiantu Building is willing to use [-] million yuan to acquire all the scientific research materials and the entire team of the Animus Life Foundation. I think, That should be a fair price."
"Five billion?!"
Before Paulie could speak, the scientific researcher next to him screamed.
"Are you kidding!? Mr. Pauly, you must not promise him!"
"I know." Paulie glanced at Tossa March blankly, "Let's go."
Seeing the team of the Animus Life Foundation leave without looking back, the expression on Tossa March's face gradually softened.
"It doesn't seem to be going well. What's next, Mr. March?"
"It doesn't matter, it's just to seek more benefits for the building by the way, the days are still long."
"Under the blockade of the building, they will not find investment, and there is no channel to sell their anything. They can only beg us, and at that time, the price will not be so fair..."
……
……
"Mr. Pauly, what shall we do next?"
Back at the mini-booth of the Animus Life Foundation, facing inquiries from his subordinates, Pauly chose to remain silent.
Afterwards, he said with difficulty: "...Hold on for a while, if you really can't find new investment, then..."
"We should cooperate with Gray Fox." Myers, the subordinate, looked regretful.
"Wilson Company itself is hard to protect. Qiantu Building's attack on us not only intends to hostile takeover, but also has the meaning of targeting Wilson Company. This is the reason for the exchange of orders... We have no way to cooperate with them..."
buzz-
The vibration of the communicator interrupted Paulie's words. He signaled Miles to silence, and pressed the answer:
"Hello, this is the Animus Life Foundation..."
"It seems that the exhibition is not going well, Mr. 'High Level'."
A dry and clear voice came from the opposite side, and Paulie frowned:
"็ Hello Who are you?"
"You can call me Gray Fox."
Paulie's expression was startled suddenly, and he glanced at Miles next to him:
"Are you the gray fox?"
Immediately, he retracted his expression and sank suddenly.
"What does the Wilson Company want to do? Let me tell you, the foundation will never sell scientific research materials casually..."
"Of course I'm here to inject you with capital."
"what?!"
Paulie's eyes widened suddenly.
Under such circumstances, is Wilson still willing to inject capital into itself?
It is difficult to hear the other party's tone in the dry voice: "Sell scientific research materials to the outside world? Is this what Qiertu Building wants?"
Paulie opened his mouth, and after a lot of thoughts flashed through his mind, he gritted his teeth violently.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Gray Fox, but... we refuse."
The dry and clear voice was silent for a while, and the gray fox's voice came again:
"This is the last patience I leave for you, don't ruin the entire Life Foundation because of your decision."
"I am very firm. Thank you for your call, Mr. Gray Fox. But we cannot cooperate with Wilson Company." A pinch of anger suddenly rose in Paulie's heart.
"In this case, I hope you will not regret it."
Communication hangs up.
Of course, this is not the only point, but I am afraid of setting up FLAG, so I will not disclose it.
